Description
Oat and Ochre is the shade I keep on the wall of the studio as a reference. A cream cotton ground with small ochre flowers scattered through it. Warm without being loud. It’s the shade I recommend most often when someone doesn’t know what they want but knows they don’t want beige.
Made by hand in our Sandton studio, hardback frame, gathered by hand into the standard silhouette. The ochre feels warm rather than yellow, so it works with brass fittings, warm woods, and terracotta plaster without competing.
Best paired with the Beaumont bobbin in Heritage Green for a garden-room feeling, or on natural wood if you want the flowers to lead.
The oat and ochre gathered lampshade combines soft, natural tones with a warm, floral motif to create a quietly characterful piece. Crafted from 100% cotton, it features an oat-coloured base scattered with delicate ochre flowers, giving the shade a gentle, earthy presence that feels both relaxed and refined.
The gathered construction adds beautiful texture and movement, catching the light in soft folds rather than a flat surface. Its neutral ground makes it easy to mix with a variety of interiors, while the golden ochre accents introduce just enough colour to bring warmth and subtle vibrancy to bedside tables, consoles or cosy reading corners.
Each shade is built on a hardback frame for structure and durability, ensuring it holds its shape and stands the test of time.
Style with our hand turned Beaumont bobbin lampstand to create a layered, tactile lighting moment that feels thoughtfully put together.

Common questions
What lampshade fitter do your shades take?
All Enclave lampshades come with a standard ES (E27) ring fitting that suits most bedside, table and floor lamps in South Africa. If your lamp has a bulb-clip fitter or a European B22 socket, let me know when you order — I can adapt the fitting for you at no extra cost.
Are your shades hardback or softback?
Hardback. Every Enclave shade is bound onto a rigid polystyrene laminate frame — that’s what stops the pleats slumping in humid Joburg summers or coastal weather, and it’s what gives the shade its clean silhouette year after year.
How do I care for my lampshade?
Dust it gently with a soft brush or the brush attachment on your vacuum on low suction, roughly once a month. For a mark or smudge, dab with a barely-damp white cloth — never soak the fabric. Kept away from direct sunlight, an Enclave shade should look as considered ten years from now as the day it arrived.
Can I order a custom lampshade?
Yes. I take commissions in your choice of fabric, colour and size — either from a Sanderson or block-print I already work with, or from a fabric you supply. WhatsApp me on 084 509 5892 with the base you’re pairing it to and I’ll come back with proportions and a quote.
Do you ship nationwide in South Africa?
Yes — every order ships via The Courier Guy, boxed and cushioned so it arrives the way it left the studio. Standard lead time is 3-5 working days from Johannesburg to major centres, and 5-7 to smaller towns. You’ll get a tracking link the moment the parcel is picked up.
Where is Enclave Decor based?
We’re a small handmade lighting studio in Sandton, Johannesburg. Every shade is gathered and bound by hand in our workshop, and the bobbins for our lamp bases are hand-turned by a local South African wood turner, and we do the sanding, colour, wiring and assembly in the studio.
